  2. Petroleum seep - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petroleum_seep

    The world's largest natural oil seepage is Coal Oil Point in the Santa Barbara Channel, California. [33] Three of the better known tar seep locations in California are McKittrick Tar Pits, [34] Carpinteria Tar Pits and the La Brea Tar Pits. [35] At Kern River Oil Field, there are no currently active seeps. However, oil-stained formations in the ...

  3. Aerotoxic syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerotoxic_syndrome

    This is known as the permissible oil leak rate. [11] If a bearing seal fails and begins to leak, depending on the location of the seal, a higher amount of engine oil may be released into the compressed air stream. Oil leaks may be detected by an odour often called 'dirty socks', or, in more serious cases, by smoke in the cabin.

    Children with encopresis often leak stool into their undergarments. This term is usually applied to children, and where the symptom is present in adults, it is more commonly known as fecal incontinence (including fecal soiling, fecal leakage or fecal seepage). [2]

  7. Blowout (well drilling) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowout_(well_drilling)

    This caused the leak and fire at the surface to cease within approximately one minute of the explosion, and proved to be a permanent solution. An attempt on a similar well was not as successful. Other tests were for such experiments as oil extraction enhancement (Stavropol, 1969) and the creation of gas storage reservoirs (Orenburg, 1970). [38]

  8. Leak detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leak_detection

    A leak appearing within an analytic region (a rule added to the camera) is immediately analyzed for its attributes, including thermal temperature, size, and behaviour (e.g. spraying, pooling, spilling). When a leak is determined to be valid based on set parameters, an alarm notification with leak video is generated and sent to a monitoring station.

  9. Head gasket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_gasket

    A leak in the head gasket - often called a "blown head gasket" - can result in a leak of coolant, the combustion gasses, or both. Blue smoke from the exhaust suggests that excess oil is entering the combustion chambers (although there are other possible causes than a head gasket leak). White smoke from the exhaust suggests that coolant is ...
